Antonio Nusa's involvement for RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga this Saturday against FC Augsburg remains up in the air.
The Norwegian has been struggling with muscular problems following a couple of intense weeks for the Saxony-based club.
Following the 3-2 loss to Manchester City in midweek in which he was subbed off, Martin Demichelis has hinted at giving Nusa a rest.
“We only trained on the pitch for 25 minutes. Warm-up and then a rondo, so no tackles or sprints,” Demichelis said at his press conference.
“Antonio is at his limit, we'll wait until tomorrow and then decide. If not, it's a shame because he's an important player,” he added.
Given his ongoing workload, Demichelis will likely want to avoid any unnecessary risks of the winger sustaining a long-term injury.
